Shootmania: Storm

  • Hey - turns out IRC is out and something a little more modern has taken it's place... A little thing called Discord!

    Join our community @ https://discord.gg/JuaSzXBZrk for a pick-up game, or just to rekindle with fellow community members.

looks to me like a ground only version of tribes ascend.....

jetpack on rightclick to make you move faster with rapidly decreasing/regenerating energy

may have some potential but i smell a bit of a ripoff :P
 
Oh, don't be put off by the terrible skill in that first vid.



a CS clan vs a TF2 clan. One of the highlights of the tournament for me. This and the final ofc :)
 
The NDA for the alpha stops tomorrow, so we'll most likely get to see more stuff about it then.
Also, there's going to be a great tourney/event for Shootmania: Storm on SOPA LAN (Saturday 16th)

It is almost ready for the first real public Shootmania LAN event. SOPA Lan will kick off this Saturday with some of esports’ great in attendance.

On 16 and 17 June Paris will be the place to be for Shootmania fans. SOPA Lan will hold its event with 32 teams with €3,500 in prize money and other prizes with a total value of €13,000.

As in previous events, SOPA Lan will be played in Elite 3v3 mode. The event will start off with a groupstage. There will be four groups of eight. The top four of each group continues to a second groupstage, where the seeds will be determined. All teams will go through from here into a double elimination sixteen team bracket.
The stream will be up tomorrow and commentary will be done by Josh “prodiG” Folland and Stuart “Django” Ewen.

Below is the schedule:

Groupstage 1: Saturday 10:30 – 19:30 CET
Groupstage 2: Saturday 20:00 – 23:00 CET
Playoffs: Sunday 09:00 – 17:00 CET
 
Finals of the SOPA Lan at 15:30 GMT, 1030 EST, 0730 PST!

Gonna be high-skilled: colwn vs adK

Team colwn

  • stermy (Italy)
    winz (France)
    l1nkin (France)

Team adK

  • aMk (France)
    thek1ng (France)
    lanf3ust (France)

Both teams have been doing good in their matches. colwn have only lost one map so far, so they're high favourites. adK were kicked down to Lower Brackets but managed to win that and get to the final.
They've got to play this final smart, and stay out of sight from stermy's railgun when he's attacking, cuz he's a beast with that thing :eek:
